Kendal Sanders, 13, and Nathaniel Tavarez, 12, were wounded in the shooting. Police said Mason Campbell, 12, opened fire in a crowded gym at Berrendo Middle School.

Tavarez returned home in February after undergoing treatment in Texas. Sanders has been recovering at home.

"What they've gone through we just can't relate to, so I think it'll be a really neat thing for both families, especially the kids, to have 10,000 to 12,000 people wrap their arms around them and say, 'We're here for you, we support you,'" said Isotopes general manager John Traub.

Tavarez and Sanders received Isotopes jerseys with their names on them.

"God saved you, and God's going to make something out of you," Tommy Lasorda said.

Lasorda, the former Los Angeles Dodgers manager and Baseball Hall of Fame member, gave the two some words of encouragement before they took center stage to throw the first pitches.

A judge in March ruled Campbell competent to stand trial. He'll face three counts of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon. The trial is set for June.

Sanders still suffers with back and arm problems because of the shooting. Tavarez only has sight in one eye. Both suffered lead poisoning.
